There is potential inside all of us – we all have it in us to shine. 

Every charity exists to help solve a problem – our charity exists to help solve many problems, from childcare shortages, social isolation, mental health issues, access to wellness, and more. Today, our network is spread across 100+ program locations in HRM and the province, meeting the most urgent needs of our communities in mental health supports, accessible childcare, supporting an increasing immigrant population, safe spaces for youth to grow and lead, helping to navigate a precarious labour market, delivering wellness programming for all, and creating community for isolated older adults.

  • Work with the Admin Coordinator and Camp Director to ensure messaging aligns with YMCA standards. 
  • Uphold privacy, consent, and safety standards in all media content. 

Collaboration & Camp Support 

  • Work with program staff to capture meaningful content across various activities. 
  • Support other program areas when creative and media duties allow. 
  • Participate as a member of the resource team and contribute to overall camp culture and operations. 

Additional Responsibilities

  • Assist with kitchen duties, including dishes and meal cleanup. 
  • Support facility maintenance, including cleaning shared spaces and program areas. 
  • Participate in groundskeeping, such as outdoor tidying and basic upkeep. 
  • Assist with trail and campsite maintenance to ensure safe and accessible program spaces.
